Nice musical performance. My take on it (listening on Sennheiser headphones) is that there is a bit of extra bass reinforcement, not only because of the close seating but also the rather reflective, slightly curved backdrop right behind the musicians. I also get a sense of fairly narrow stereo, at least on the headphones. Then combine that with a long narrow rectangular hall and very high ceilings. If you listen to the timpani on relatively quiet hits and rolls ( eg around 15:10) there is some added reverberance to them. But the added bass reinforcement is only constricted in one direction and the waves can expand outwards without truncation. The engineers did a good job to keep it from being a soupy mess. i couldn't see where the mics were. Thanks Paul for the video link. I searched but couldn't find it.
